Christmas Corns are a Hypo type Corn Snake. They have been developed by Bill Brant of Gourmet Rodents and sold as such for a few years. They are reported to have came from wild caught corns from Dausfuskie Island. They are a genetically reproducible Hypo Corn, but the type of hypo gene that it is has not been established yet. Is it one of the existing hypo genes, (Standard, Sunkissed, Lava, or Ultra) or a new one is a questions that we are trying to figure out at this time. It will take another year at least.
I have not seen many Christmas Corns, but this is a photo of one of the ones that was used in the Test Breeding Program this year.
